Turned "Show Border" off (or on) and the file looks exactly the same

What you are seeing

I turned "Show Border" off (or on) and the file looks exactly the same.


#Why it happens

Show Border only changes the boxes the macro shows when there is no file to display: the "Select File" prompt before you pick a file, and the cards for anonymous readers, accounts that are not connected, and errors. A file that loads successfully never has a border, whichever way the setting is.


#What to do

Nothing. A working macro will not change. The setting only affects how the placeholder and error boxes look.


#A few things that catch people out

  • If you pick the file again, Show Border and Show Line Numbers go back to on and the Description is cleared. Check your settings after re-picking.



Found it? Good.
